The left has no compunctions about invading the privacy of conservative political leaders -- as in publishing maps
and specific street names and photographs of the private (not anymore)
homes where the Vice President and Defense Secretary and their families
spend their vacations?

I think that's really low.
David Horowitz (June 30, 2006) has the story and commentary.
In an apparent retaliation for criticism of its disclosure of classified intelligence to America's enemies, the New York Times June 30th edition has printed huge color photos of the vacation residences of Vice President Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, identifying the small Maryland town where they live, showing the front driveway and in Rumsfeld's case actually pointing out the hidden security camera in case any hostile intruders should get careless:

Make no mistake about it, there is a war going on in this country. The aggressors in this war are Democrats, liberals and leftists who began a scorched earth campaign against President Bush before the initiation of hostilities in Iraq. The initiators of this war were Al Gore and Jimmy Carter who attacked the president's attempt to rally the world against Saddam's defiance of international law in September 2002 just after his appeal to the UN General Assembly. Coming from national leaders of the opposition party these were attacks unprecedented in the history of post-Civil War American politics. Carter's perfidious decision to accept a Nobel Peace Prize designed to attack his own president followed shortly after.
The campaign began in earnest with Nancy Pelosi's attack on the liberation of Iraq as "too costly" on April 13, 2003, the day American troops pulled down Saddam's statue and was raised to the level of political sabotage of our troops in Iraq and America's war on terror when a Democratic chorus began hammering the commander-in-chief as a "liar" over the 16 words about Saddam's effort to purchase fissionable uranium in Niger. The campaign to sabotage America's war against the Islamo-fascist enemy has continued unabated through Gitmo, Abu Ghraib, Fallujah, Haditha and the two intelligence programs that the New York Times exposed. Its agenda is to force an American defeat in Iraq using the model of Vietnam ("Bring the troops home," while the battle is in progress). Let's hope the American people wise up and stop it in its tracks.
